The variety of the contents of the
current CENTURY Is not less noticeable
than the geographical distribution of
their origin. In subjects and contrib
utors all sections of the country are
represented, and appeal is made 10
many tastes. Politics, biography,
travel, flction.of four kinds, art. archi-
lecture, astronomy, public questions,
war "reminiscences, unwritten history,
poetry, and humor furnish topics of
vital and present interest.
The Life of Lincoln, by Hay and
Nicolay, is occupied with Lincoln's
first term in Congress and his life as a
lawyer, this installment concluding
the first portion of the biography and
carrying its subject TO his fortieth
year His campaign for Congress, his
opposition TO the principle OF the Mex
lean war, his maiden speech in the
House, his bill TO abolish slavery in the
District of Columbia, his attitude to-
ward appointments TO Office, and his
characteristics as lawyer are part of
the subject-matter of the February
chapters.
Other biographical articles relate to
two widely different types of divines
President James McCosh, of Prince
ton College, being the subject of
paper by John Van Cleve, and Father
Taylor, the Boston Methodist preach
er,-of two rix-tch~-, 10y the Rev. Drs
G. A. Bartol and Walt Whitman, both
Of whom unite in pronouncing him
the most eloquent of speakers.
Prof. Langley's New Astronomy
Series may appropriately be called the
latest news from the sky. The pres
ent paper has fascinating theme,
1.-THE Stars" and he treats it in a way
to hold the attention.
"rhe Railing of Jefferson Davis,
as recounted by one of the chief actors
in the affair, Hon. George Shea, of
New York, is the subject of a paper by
George p Lathrop. Mr.. Shea's inter
views with Horace Greedy, Garrison,
Henry Wilson, Il. p. Blair, Chief-Jus-
tice Chase, and President Johnson, i'm
bringing about the release of Davis,
form an interesting, connected nara
tive which has not before been given
to the public.
Col. w. G. Church, in "a Midwin-
ter Resort" describes the Bahamas in
a sparkling style, quite in keeping with
the illustrations by Mr.. Winslow Ho-
mer.
In the War Series the important sub
ject of Gettysburg is concluded by
paper of untechnical narrative by the
officer who gave the order for the
charge in the third days's fight, to wit,
General James Longstreet. Portraits
of Generals X. e. Lee, Barksdale,
Semmes, Pender, and Garrett are
among the cuts.
In the department. of fiction there is
the closing halt of Mr.. Cables pathet-
ic story, "Carancro, the fourth part
of Mr. Stockton's "Hundredth Man,
in which the Now York restaurant
passes temporarily into other hands,
and two one-part stories.
The poetry includes Souvenir de
Jeunesse, by Edmund Clarence Sted-
man, and contributions by i. Frank

j. Preston, Robert Burns Wilson and
others.

The Rhode Island prohibitionists are
in a bad way. The prohibition law
went into effect last July and was
a temporary success. Nearly all of
the saloons in Providence were closed
for few weeks when they began to
open again, and to-day there are near
ly as many liquor shops running in
that city in defiance of the law as
there were before the law took effect.
The trouble COMES from lack of pub
lie sentiment to enforce the law. 1t is
easy to see that it will not be long be-
fore Providence will be deluged with
free whisky. Detroit Tribune.

Raising the ''age OF consent" to 1S
years, as the legislature is requested to
do, would, if the law be carried cut,
expose every man who has Illicit rela-
tions with women under that age to
imprisonment for life. No jury could
be persuaded to condemn a man to
such n punishment for such offenses,
unless violence and force were proved,
and in that case the law would be SUI
periluous. The law, therefore, would
prove dead letter. The cause of pu-
rity will lose rather than gain by an
iInpncticable measure. The age ought
to be more than 10, as it now is, but
is is too high; not because it will en-
danger "our sons" as one member
says. for Tour sons" can save them
selves from all evil consequences by
not bringing themselves within scope
of the law, but because the law can
not be enforced. 1t would be more ca
~ to enforce statute making mar
riage TO a woman under that age life
offense. Because marriage il at least
a deliberate act.--DetroH Journal.

The democratic newspapers which
congratulate the country and the re-
publican party for electing Hiscock to
the senate from New York because of
his superiority to Morton and Miller,
chuckle, in the same columns, over the
democratic trick in Massachusetts,
which elected Dawes, an inferiorma
TO Long and Robinson. If the coun-
try is better because the republicans
elected Hiscock, it must be worse be-
cause the democrats elected Dawes.
But that does not seem TO hinder the
Democrats from rejoicing and being ex-
ceedingly glad. Detroit Journal.

4 Word for Criminal Lawyers.

It is mistaken impression people have
that when lawyer defe,.dsa criminal he
is fully aware Of his guilt, and that all
his efforts tend to disprovc his guilt. It
is almost as common us the idea that
not for him to prove himself innocent but
for tho state to prove him guilty. It has
been my experience (and other gentlemen
in criminal practice with whom I have
conversed agree with mc) that the men I
have defended who have been guilty have
invariably told me that they wc4o inno-
cent, and have been unaware If the
true state Of facts until the state has
proved them up. Criminals, that is the
professionals, are suspicious, and they do
not tell their lawyers the exact nature Of
their cases. They depend upon their
friends to swear them out. They tell the
lawyer what certain witnesses know, and
these witnesses are summoned. Often
witnesses commit rank perjury, Of course,
but decent lawyer knows very well that
u perjured witness is liable to break and
spoil the case, and no, il witness is s,ls-
pected of lying, he is never put upon the
stand. No, lawyers arc an abused set of
men. They have lrcn b,ulesqued and
reviletl in fiction and drama and paint
ing. and anything will h believed of
thenl-nothing sooner than they s,,born
perjury. 1t is against their interest to do
this, and il they won't give 4 lawyer
credit for morals, perhaps they will for
looking out for his own interests. s.-Iaw-

The Olive and Its Home.


1t is not too much to say that tho day
is not far distant when the olive and the
olive oil industry will become Que Of the
most important in the state of California.
The first trees planted are still in good
condition, although they lave been neg
lected at times, and arc III years old.
Tho olive grows from cuttings, like the
willow, and will bear in ten years. It
comes down 10 us from our fathers, along
with the fig and tho vino. There is a
pretty allusion to it in connection with
tho first navigator; olive wood was used
largely in tho construction of Sol0mon's
temple, while the most illustrious Of
preachers delivered his greatest sermon
from an elevation shaded by these silver
leafed trees There are many olive trees
now living in European countries 1000
years old aud upward. This treo will
grow and thrive in rocky and sandy
places, but must not be too far from the
sea. In California it does hest from San
Diego to Point Conception, from one or
two to twenty miles from the sca. Its
true home is sen,i.tropical climate from
ono to twenty-five miles from, the sca: /:
those at Damascus are fifty miles away,
and have seen them in this country in a
tiourishing condition even $50 miles away
from the saline influence Of the Pacific. -
